What about the space in between the mother and the crone, the space in between a woman's reproductive years and post menopause? Dancing The In Between Womb Circle invites women to gather in a safe, facilitated container, to share, learn, grow, be inspired, empowered, honored and celebrated through the dance of perimenopause. “Dancing the in between” speaks to the journey women move through for approximately 4-10 years often beginning in our mid-40’s and moving through to our mid-50’s (age range varies, sometimes beginning earlier or ending later). “Dancing the in between” speaks to the space in between, when a woman is no longer reproductive/ child bearing and not quite an elder. “Dancing the in between” speaks to this period called perimenopause and the journey transitioning to postmenopause....

Fungi are our sacred ancestors. They are foundational to a resilient planet, body, and community. Fungi illuminate our undeniable connectivity, our dance between life and death, help see the unseen, and exist more as a verb or flow than a stasis or conclusion. In many traditions around the world womyn are the ones who keep the mushroom knowledge. At the same time, in modern American culture, fungi have been dangerously neglected, misunderstood, vilified, condemned and deemed as nothing more than harmful pests.
